Hey there Elves on Shelves!

There you have it. The Main Questline taking you through Phase 3 & 4 of the Raid to the North Pole Event. Make sure you are paying attention to the Characters triggering them as many times I ran into the need to have them free in order to trigger the next parts of the Questlines.
Where are you on the Main Questlines? Any tips to help other players with these Questlines? Let us know.

Bunny help!! I just unlocked Phase 4. I have completed North by North Pole Part 2. I placed the Toy Army Recruitment Center. I went back into the HQ.. It has Vet Herbert locked as well as the tank that I need.. And has gone on to the Coal Mine.. I do have the tank in the shop for a coin when I’m in the North Pole, but I don’t know if that would help anything, I thought the opposit rather.. What do I do?
LikeLike
It also has the item after the coal mine available for purchase. I forget what it is. I’m very confused.
I don’t have enough presents for either the Coal Mine or the item after, so they are both available for clam purchase.

Hey, is anyone having a problem with Veteran Herbert? I had a option to buy the tank for a coin rather than the presents so obviously I did it. However as the tank comes after Herbert in the present store I think I’ve locked him out!! It won’t let me click on him any more 😦

Hey,
I’m trying to be proactive & have Chris start his task ” get brain freeze ” now for North Pole 9 ,& the actions not on his list?

There are many tasks during an Event that will not trigger until a specific point in the Questline, so you will see this a few different times where a task does not exist until the game activates it. 🙂

Thanks I was holding back starting tasks, and then when Santa cleared also and still nothing I was getting worried I would be stuck on phase 4. Herbert attacking and Sarah getting a start on her 9 hour task for E quest are literally my only characters on task.

So is it safe to assume the Gingerbread Bot Bakery must be purchased for 1400 presents before the final set is unlocked? I don’t need or want it, but…if I must.

Hi. I am on north by North Pole part 5 and have already unlocked veteran Herbert but for some reason I’m unable to see him. It says ‘oops, Veteran Herbert is locked until you complete additional objectives’ but I have no idea what else I need to do?
When I go to Santa’s HQ it already shows there that he has been unlocked with the presents but he still isn’t appearing. I have actually unlocked the gingerbread tank as well.
Is it a known glitch or shall I report to tiny co?
Thanks

Hi! Herbert starts part 7. Need him free. So, either use him in battle in part 6, or just send T-1000, if you have him; leaving Herbert free to trigger pt. 7.
Just a tip for those rushing to finish before next phase. 🙂

Are the spy wristwatches for Secret Spy Brian still supposed to say “coming soon…” I have collected all of the required number of items in the other three categories, so it seems weird that I still can’t get wristwatches.. I’m thinking maybe it’s a glitch.

This is the first event I’ve sat out on in two years. I love checking in here just to see what’s going on. I think I’ve saved myself a lot of frustration this time around. All the glitches get me fired up. I’m really enjoying just leveling up all my characters. Thanks for all the hard work on this site you do!!

My North Pole Bed and Breakfast went missing three days ago. I think it was the building eith the green roof. Did this happen to anyone else? I’ve contacted TinyCo but I haven’t gotten a response.

I had 2 tank hangers as well. The first one I bought with bells. It was available in the same shopping cart area as Jesus and the other stuff you can buy.
The second tank was one the things you needed to buy with presents.
I kept upgrading the first tank and had it at level 3, but then guess what happened?
Both tank hangers disappeared today. Then later in the day when I clicked on the exclamation point in Santa’s Bakery, I got a message that I needed to build the talk hanger for 10 seconds. What??? So, I clicked on it, built it (again!), and was finally able to attack the bakery again. But, my tank was back at level one, despite the fact I already was on level 3. That kinda sucks, plus I lost 12 hours of attacking ability when I had no tanks available because they disappeared. Now I don’t have enough time to attack the bakery 3 more times to get the timed prize (not that I really wanted the prize – it’s just the principle of the thing).
I think Tiny Co. has figured out the timing of this event way better than the Halloween event. The exchange process is better for sure. Now if only they would have more things to buy with chestnuts. You get them every 3 hours and I have a bunch stocked up with nothing really to use them on.
